I just got asked to play a Darwinist in a video for my class at church. We'll be filming Sunday, and screening Wednesday.

Any advice?

Dear god Jeff, let some love into your heart.

Er, advice, advice. Act. That'll do.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

That's what you're supposed to say when someone's going to act. "Break a leg!"

Riiiiiiight, Jeff...

I really think I can handle acting like a Darwinist. My only real concern is that if I read certain people's reactions properly, we're filming at the house of one Grant. His eight-year-old sister Grace(ie) has taken quite a liking to me recently, demanding candy (she LOVES blue raspberry warheads), piggy-back rides, and the pushing of swings. She even stole my glasses Sunday night and hid in the little girls' room. She could... interfere with filming.

But on the plus side, they do have a grand piano. A grand piano will cover a multitude of sins.

This thread makes almost as much sense as that great thread of old: "My Mother's Elder Horse Walker Blueness Cavort. Crabapple? Disturb!"

Well, its no surprise Omega's never heard of "Break a leg" before, but I'm surprised at Liam not.

I'm just worried about what you and Grace are planning on doing to that Grand Piano.

Is this going to be one of those propaganda films where you play distorted caricatures of people, so you have to portray the Darwinist as some wild-eyed crazed Satan-worshipper?

Man, I oughtta be there to film a scene for you guys... "You've heard Mr. Speer... and now, for the Democratic response..."

Jeff: Everyone knows what "break a leg" means. It was the fact that we all knew the double-meaning you were giving it when you used it on Omega.

TSN, honestly, I'm not PsyLiam, I'm not capable of subtelty ... I'd say "Play with Grace on the piano and break your skull in fifty pieces when you fall off!"

So, instead, I said "Break a leg!" and people jumped on me. Chill out folks!

Advice? If at any moment you feel like shouting out how Darwin is actually a liar and you want to recite the entire book of Genesis, Dont!

No idea. If it is, I won't do it. 'T'would be intellectually dishonest.

Any musical numbers?

If there are, I hope they give me some advance warning so I can work up whatever song they need me to play. Any suggestions for good evolutionist songs? "If I Only Had a Brain," perhaps?

KIDDING! Don't smite me.
